1.
Inert love language
sits choking
at the back of my throat.
To think, I chose to be here.
I put myself in a place
where it physically hurts
to miss her.
I’ve made common mistakes
that invincible side of me
thinking I could leap
and land without any scratches.
The human condition
needing to belong to others.
It’s crazy to think
the hands of others
touching her.

Out of control,
I can’t get her
out of my mind
it’s no use to try, really
she’s too pretty
of a mistake to erase.
Perhaps, just maybe
I’ll get through to her
and ask if she’ll meet me
on the steps of the garden.
Poetry and submission
words we’ve come to respect
I wonder how many would follow
to kneel at the foot of a flower
gently kiss the velvet gem.
This is the fifth hour,
wait, to calm yourself.
Treasure the quiet solitude,
stare and believe in a place
that only you can create.
Close your eyes,
imagine you’re giving a tour
to your one true love.
Showing the time and attention
it has taken you
to reach this place.
